Posted by Gaetano-DiNardi-NYCDisclaimer: I’m currently the Director of Demand Generation at Nextiva, and writing this case study post-mortem as the former VP of Marketing at Sales Hacker (Jan. 2017 - Sept. 2018). Every B2B company is investing in content marketing right now. Why? Because they all want the same thing: Search traffic that leads to website conversions, which leads to money. But here’s the challenge: Companies are struggling to get traction because competition has reached an all-time high. Ke... →

Posted by Victor_IjidolaIt’s easy to find writers; they’re everywhere — from a one-second Google search to asking on LinkedIn. But hiring the best ones? That's the daunting task marketers and business owners face. And you do not just need writers, you need exceptional SEO content writers. Mainly because that’s what Google (aka the largest traffic driver of most sites) has clearly been clamoring for since their Panda update in 2011, RankBrain in 2015, and their “Fred” update (and by the way, Gary Illyes from... →

Posted by PaulShapiroMaybe it's crossed your mind once or twice before: You know, this would be a lot easier if I just knew how to program. But it's an intimidating subject, especially if you're not sure of your technical expertise, and there's so much to learn that it's hard to know where to start. In today's Whiteboard Friday, master technical SEO Paul Shapiro shares why it's so important for SEOs and marketers to take the programming plunge, explains key concepts, and helps you determine the best course ... →

Posted by LaurelTaylorWhether you consult with teams within your company or with outside clients, the chances are fairly high that at least once, you’ve left a meeting frustrated by the actions of others, even asking yourself: “why would they do that?” It’s easy to walk into a project thinking of it as a simple matter of “they brought me in to fix a problem.” But the reality is rarely so simple. Consulting with other teams always entails organizational and emotional nuance that you may not be privy to. Eve... →

Posted by HeatherPhysiocSearch can't live in a silo. If you want to see success, cross-collaboration across your organic, content, and paid teams is absolutely key. But that takes a huge amount of effort, from untangling communication to cross-training to getting buy-in from everyone involved. What's a search marketer to do? If you missed her talk this year at MozCon 2019, here's your chance to make up for it! In today's edition of Whiteboard Friday, Heather Physioc shares her framework for successfully int... →

Posted by getsprunkTake a moment to think about how you’ve used the internet today. Which posts made you stop scrolling through your Instagram feed? What webpages did you spend the most time on? What content did you enjoy? If you’re like most of us, there’s a good chance that videos played a factor in your answers to all three of those questions. So it’s no surprise that marketing experts have been encouraging brands to use more video for years now. Despite all this hype, many small to medium brands still u... →

Posted by katemorrisEditor's note: This post first appeared in April of 2017, but because SEO (and Google) changes so quickly, we figured it was time for a refresh!Meta tags represent the beginning of most SEO training, for better or for worse. I contemplated exactly how to introduce this topic because we always hear about the bad side of meta tags — namely, the keywords meta tag. One of the first things dissected in any site review is the misuse of meta tags, mainly because they're at the top of every page... →

Posted by Alex-TI’m always fascinated with the marketing budgets of enterprise-level companies that are ready to pay astronomical sums to contractors. A recent shmooze in the community was thanks to Hertz that paid 32M to Accentura agency, which (so far) hasn't resulted in any substantial changes to their site. Though I personally don't work with client’s who throw around millions of dollars, that doesn’t affect the quality of services that I provide. My average client wants to get the maximum by spending a... →

In our fourth vlog episode I was in Seattle for Mozcon and I asked Rand Fishkin (@randfish) if I can interview him for my new vlog series. He invited me to his home/office, aka ShedToro, and despite some angry bees...... →

If you’re interested in the wonderful world of log files and what they can bring to your site audits, this guide is definitely for you. What are Log Files?

Posted by Dr-PeteThey say history repeats itself. In the case of the great 301 vs 302 vs rel=canonical debate, it repeats itself about every three months. And in the case of this Whiteboard Friday, it repeats once every two years as we revisit a still-relevant topic in SEO and re-release an episode that's highly popular to this day. Join Dr. Pete as he explains how bots and humans experience pages differently depending on which solution you use, why it matters, and how each choice may be treated by Google. ... →

Posted by KameronJenkinsIf the last day of MozCon felt like it went too fast or if you forgot everything that happened today (we wouldn't judge — there were so many insights), don't fret. We captured all of day three's takeaways so you could relive the magic of day three. Don't forget to check out all the photos with Roger from the photobooth!

Posted by SuzzicksWhile SEOs have been doubling-down on content and quality signals for their websites, Google was building the foundation of a new reality for crawling — indexing and ranking. Though many believe deep in their hearts that "Content is King," the reality is that Mobile-First Indexing enables a new kind of search result. This search result focuses on surfacing and re-publishing content in ways that feed Google’s cross-device monetization opportunities better than simple websites ever could. F... →

Posted by KameronJenkinsWe had another amazing day here at MozCon — our speakers delivered some incredible expertise for Day two. But there was plenty of moments in-between that was also just as spectacular. In no particular order, today also consisted of: Areej parading 180 slides-worth of knowledge in 14 minutes — like a boss! 1,000+ attendees singing Marie happy birthdayDr. Pete bringing the "wizard" in SEO wizard to his talk (and now everyone wants to know which House everyone belongs to)Dogs DO like ... →

Posted by KameronJenkinsRand, Russ, Ruth, Rob, and Ross. Dana and Darren. Shannon and Sarah. We didn’t mean to (we swear we didn’t) but the first day of MozCon was littered with alliteration, takeaways, and oodles of insights from our speakers. Topics ranged from local SEO, link building, and Google tools, and there was no shortage of "Aha!" moments. And while the content was diverse, the themes are clear: search is constantly changing. If you're a Moz community member, you can access the slides from Day O... →

Posted by Kirsten_BarkvedShow of hands if the following scenario has ever happened to you: You make it to a conference. You sit through three to four days of amazing content, network like a boss, fill up on coffee and donuts, and cover page after page of notes — your wrist is dangerously close to being diagnosed with carpal tunnel. The energy in the room is contagious and everyone leaves the conference with the promise of new strategies, connections, and ideas that have the possibility to transform the way... →

Posted by MiriamEllisLast time I counted, there were upwards of 35 components to a single Google Business Profile (GBP). Hotel panels, in and of themselves, are enough to make one squeal, but even on a more “typical” GPB, it’s easy to overlook some low-lying features. Often, you may simply ignore them until life makes you engage. A few weeks ago, a local SEO came to me with a curious real-life anecdote, in which a client was pressuring the agency to have all their staff hit the “like” button on all of the ... →
